After being a little disappointed in the 2nd book, I was pleasantly surprised with this one. I'm not sure if it's simply that I prefer Miranda as a narrator or if it was returning to familiar characters, but I quite enjoyed it. The ending was heart breaking and now I must finish the series and see what happens next.
Not up to the standard of the previous and last in the series
The books finally came together!!! I was hoping they would somehow tie together because it was odd reading the stories of two different families separately. I gave the other books in the series 4 stars because I couldn't feel as connected to the individual families that way. I love the way this book combined into one though! I can't wait to start on the last book.
I really liked how this book combined the other two. Good series
I was happy to be reading Miranda’s diary entries again and to be back with familiar characters. I didn’t like this one quite as much as the first one, but the survival story is always well done, and I look forward to reading the last book.
This was the third and final book of the trilogy. It combined the characters found in the first book with those in the second. The first half seemed like it would be exactly the same as the first two books, which were exactly the same! Lots of scavenging and being hungry and arguing. But the second half moved into new territory and was much more interesting.
I'm not really sure what the point of this novel was; I think the series was stronger without it. The first two gave a good view of what happened after the moon disaster from two different locations and two different families. This one just seemed to force the families together, and to pair them up. It seems like authors have a need to constantly write trilogies or continue series really beyond their need.
And it seemed like some of the personalities of the characters changed from the previous books. Maybe it was meant to show how the disaster changes everyone, but a lot of the personality things in the book were not fully explained and seemed a little out of character from what I remembered.
However, this book does have some good points. The "house hunting" seemed really smart and like something they should have been doing earlier as well as the fishing. Why it took them a year to think of these things is beyond me. They should have been scavenging as much as possible. I did like the addition of the new characters because it seems like in that world family units would be more fluid and about survival instead of blood.
It was an interesting book, but just really unnecessary. The first 2 in the series were very powerful and this seemed to diminish in comparison.

I wasn't impressed with this one either. The first book in the series was much more captivating. Miranda had so much character development in the first book, but really nothing in this book. I felt like the plot moved too quickly because her dad and Alex and them didn't show up until too late in the book. Again, I really like the premise, but this wasn't executed very well.
I just finished 'This World We Live In' by Susan Beth Pfeffer, #3 in the moon trilogy, although there seems to be a #4 on the way. It tells the story of what happens to society when the moon is pushed a little closer to earth. Each book is written from a different person's point of view. Not great literature, but an entertaining story.
